Montgomery County Boys and Girls Club receives grant from Duke Energy.

The Boys & Girls Club of Montgomery County recently received a $4000.00 grant from Duke Energy to support the Club’s After School Program.

“We are thrilled Duke Energy is supporting our After School Program. The children who participate in our program will benefit greatly from Duke’s generosity”. Said Craig Reeves, Executive Director of the Club. “We can’t thank Duke enough for their support.” The money will specifically go to the Clubs Indiana Kids. Our Indiana Kids Program provides educational enrichment through math, reading, volunteerism, homework sessions and career sessions. This program helps youth progress to the next grade level on time which is especially important due to struggles because of e-learning.

The local club served over 1800 children in 2020 during the pandemic and is on track to serve over 3000 children this year. The Club has received National recognition for its National Youth Outcomes Initiative Survey results as the local club exceeded the results of all the Clubs nationwide.
